Okay, now you´re both talking technicalities. "If she´s not targeted, her attacks do more damage". Well duh. I was talking about actual fighting skill, like moving, jumping, dodging, hitting, evading, etc.. Not mere stats, which I think would be/is pretty insulting towards Akatsuki. "You´re only good for your bonus stats that are good under certain circumstances". She deserves better than that.

I'm sure she can defeat sufficiently lower level monsters, NPCs, and even players just fine in any manner of an open fight. That wasn't the point. A wizard won't get far trying to crack a fighter's skull with his staff, he has to use his spells to fry the fighter. An assassin similarly can't compete in sheer strength with a fighter, she needs to use the skills and methods granted by her class. It's exceedingly weird to call that insulting. What you are saying is that an assassin should be just as powerful in an open fight as a regular fighting class, but in addition to that they would also have the assassin's special skills and techniques as a free extra. Now that would be totally unfair.
